The same number of the Rerister contains 11 card from Messrs.

So we have understood. Oknlangy Gaztltt. Yes, Mr. Gallufrher has made his congee to the na trons of the Ohio .Stale Journal, and taken his leave of an arduous, responsible, and thankless profession.

General Allen is a tried and approved writer Circlcvillt HcraU. Mr. Gallagher has our best wishes in his reliracv. Mr. Allen is an able writer, and we trust that the Journal and Register will lose nothing by the change. General Allen is one of the best political writers in the State: and what is better, he is a sound democrat. Steubmville Herald. He (General Allen') is a vigorous writer, and an uncompromising whig IVatern Palladium. lie is an able writer and worthy his reaponsible sta tion. Mr. Gallagher has left the field with honor to h i insel f. . Hamilton Intelligencer. The Journal has been ably conducted under the ma nagement of Mr. Gallagher, and we are sorry to part with him, Mr. Allen is an able writer and an experienced editor, and the whig cause will be well sustained by him. (Mt'o Srpublican. Mr. Gallagher, an old and valued personal friend of ours, and a very sensitive man, by the way, seems to leave his political charge wilh something of disgust for the editorial vocation. We are sorry to see this; but hope lo find him, before long, at the head of some staunch whig paper, urging onward the great work of rt'turm. General Allen has seen service as an editor: is an able and pleasing writer, as well as an experienced putiiiciiin. uaywn journal. We do not wonder that Mr. Gallagher, an old and tried frit nil of ours, feels no regret in leaving the onerous labors of the political tripod. A sensitive mind finds much, in tho controversies that an independent editor is subject to, to mar and corrode its happiness. It is suhjtct to the slanders of the most vile; the secret thrusts of the most debased and coward-like assassin, and the foul-mouthed vituperation of the degene rate anti recKiess Dully ot a partisan clique. The opinions of an editor are, from week to week, placed before the miblie. and every unstarL conceited nolilii ian conceives himself at perfect liberty to misconstrue and misrepresent them, and commence a personal tirade against the editor for expressing opinions contrary to what is dictated to him as being pure and holy in de mocracy! we hope, however, that our Mend Gallagher will not yet desert the afniy of the whig press; but that he will again hoist the banner of reform, and assist in driving from power the corrupt and profligate partisans that are now revelling in Ilia spoils of office Ihe revenue raised from the yeomanry of ths country.- Hichmond Ind.) Palladium. Mr. Gallagher was an able and an accomnlished editor. General Allen, in his address to the public, gives a pledge which, we douht not, will be highly satisfactory to the great body nf the whigs throughout the state. Ml, Vernon It atehman. Perhaps so; but Mr. Allen's views, as advanced In the Gazette, have been altogether too exclusively for Harrison to meet much favor with the whigs in this section of the Slate. In assuming the charrre of Ihe Journal and Register, however, Mr. A. pledges himself ' to go for Ihe whig party alone, without reference to men, and uninfluenced by local and private considerations." If Mr. Allen can suppress his Hnr- risonism, as he pledges himself, he will make the Journal what it should be, and dble an efficient whig pnper. OAi'o Tranteript.

We believe he will go for the whig party of this Slate snd the Union," as the only means of rescuing the country from the ruin which misrule has brought upon It. At the same time, his partiality for General Harrison will be none the less sincere; and, while he will endeavor to assert his claims to a preference aa a candidate fur the presidency, he will not meanly and maliciously place either nf his distinguished rivals upon the same platform with Rill Johnson, or any other worthless renegado. This pledge of Mr. Allen implies thai he looks to fie sanction of a Whig National Convention for our candidate fur Ihe presidency; the patriotic letter of General Harrison implies that he, too, looks to the action of the same body for the sanction of his nomina tion, though some ( lav whig editors aflect to deny it. Tho truth is, the star of old Tippecanoe is in the ascendant, and Is rapidly culminating to its meridian splendor. 1 he magnanimous, who have other preferences, will not mourn at this; we are sure that his distinguished rivals will not mourn al it, if so Ihe prosperity or Ihe country ran be best promoted; and it will be lefnly for the narrow-minded partisan to show the iiiipotcjiey of his malice, by vainly attempting to undervalue the services, snd slur the character of the retired soldier and enlightened statesman, who is so eminently worthy of the warmest regard and confidence of us all. 0ii'v Star. Mr. Allen is well known in this region (by the coty- nomcn of "Six f firm") as an experienced editor and excellent wrilor. Whilewe regret the withdraw-nl of Mr. Gallagher from a station whirh he has filled wilh signal honor to himself and satisfaction to his mends, we are gratified to learn that he is to be suc ceeded bysucna tnlenlod gentleman as General Allen.

Peace and prosporily to the departed to 'the now-arrived,' abundant success. Mr. Allen is the gentleman who, in connexion with Mr. Oltnstead, recently issued proposals for publish, ing the 'Ohio Sta:o Courier. In doing so, they avowed their determination to support for the presidency Oltiu's favorite Ihe Hero of Tippecanoe. The Conner is now abandoned, and, in his address to the readers of the Register, Mr. Allen proclaims himself a whig, 'uninfluenced hy local or personal preferences. This it well enough if it mean no more than appears at first view. Hut, taken In connexion wilh the late declaration in favor of General-Harrison, it looks a lit tie suspicious. In Columbus, as in Xenin, there is s kn it of politicians who deem devotion to Mr. Clay Ihe only lest of whigism. It was Ihe mlsfnrtuno of the late editor to pay greater deference to them than his readers were tlisposed to yield. Hence it was that very many whigs, in different parts of tho Stale, experienced a revival of their hopes, and an increased expectation of Ihe success of llio parly when they saw the prospectus of tho Conner. Why is Ihe name of Harrison dropped by Mr. Allenl Have his friends yielded, or lint there been 1 compromise effected between the partiett This is a question nf vast imnnri. ance, not lo the whigs of Ohio, or of the nation only, but lo the people of the whole nation.

The question is not an important one, as it is based on improper promises, Mr. Allen and the Register must act independently at present; or it will ba difficult lo please both you and the Transcript. sid! ne- rim Itegiiler. We think so too. Mr. Allen has made himself very favorably known as the editor of a spirited whig paper si .iiasiiuon, unio. w wisn him success In his new station; a position of do little difficulty. And we would like to see him exerting his influence in reforming the tone of the public press. We believe it to be vicious and full of mischief. Questions are no longer discussed upon principle, upon those permanent principles by which time tests all the works of man, whether they be good or whether they be evil Instead of this system, every measure is looked to with reference to Us present popularity. Names have become to stand in the place of things. If a measure can be called by a particular name, and will for Ihe time being gain votes, that is all that is sought for. In this way the public mind is losing all fixedness, all stability. It is veering about like a March wind, having lost all hold upon those great principles which serve as anchors lo the publio mind. Hence it is, that we see men and majorities changing with the annual revolution of the earth; changing too out of mere caprice, and not from any change of principle. This kind of writing may serve a temporary purpose, but must in the end prod uce a harvest of evil. We would, had we lime, like to enlarge upon this topic, on which we have reflected much. We commend these sug-gestions to the serious consideration of all who thus cater for the public. Gallipolie Journal. Well the thing is done. General Allen's labors in the Journal and Register will commence about the first of next month. His qualifications for the editorial chair are of the highest order; and under his management the Journal and Register will doubtless continue to be, what it has heretofore been, the accredited organ and efficient advocate of the whig party in Ohio.

The Commissioners sent from this State to Ohio, wilh a view of procuring the passage of laws calculated to prevent the interference with the slave property of Kentucky by evil disposed persons in Ohio, have been received by the Legislature and Executive of that Stale with distinguished courtesy. The Legislature, on being informed of the arrival of the Commissioners at Columbus, by joint resolutions appointed a committoo of the two Houses, to wait upon them in lite name of the Legislature of Ohio, tender to them all the civilities of the State, and lo advise them that ihe Governor was made the medium of communication between them and the Assembly. The Commissioners have been received and treated with the most marked distinction and courtesy, and from all the indications which have been manifested, a satisfactory termination of the mission may be confidently expected. The Commissioners, in pursuance of the invitation, addressed a communication in writing, to the Legislature on the 2Cth. It is a calm, respectful, and impartial representation of the grievances of which Kentucky complains, recites what other Legislatures have done on similar applications, and concludes with the suggestion of the passage of such laws as will remove all cause of collision between the two States. We learn from private sources, that the best feeling prevails in the Ohio Legislature, and that every disposition is entertained to adopt such legislation as will promote union and harmony. Wo learn also, that written communications, in the first Instance, were deemed (as they most certainly are,) the most respectful, and in strict conformity with diplomatic usage, by which the Legislature of Ohio became officially informed of Ihe presence and desires of the Commissioners from another State. It has been a matlerof surprise lo us to see the Legis lature of Ohio accused of want of courtesy, at the very moment when they were.in the exercice of all the courtesy, attention and consideration, which this State could have desired. 1 he Commissioners themselves, who were in position lo see and know all tho motives which led to the adoption of the resolutions inviting mem to address tne Legislature through the Executive, have met the invitation in a proper spirit, and responded. Whatever may Le Ihoueht of the mode, we are con fident that the intention was to pay the highest mark of respect, and for ourselves, we are fully satisfied that Ohio has adopted, in the first instance, the true diplomatie style of communication. The response of ino vouiinissioners migni icaa to a acsire lor a less restrained intercourse, snd one not restricted by the formalities of written addresses, and the reception of me response, would oe tne time to determine whether such further invitation were desired or necessary. upon tne wnoic, tnose who advocated the commission, have every reason to be perfectly satisfied with its present attitude.

Yes, nineteen out of twenty of our citizens, if they see a slave escaping from Kentucky, or any where else, in spite of all laws and penal enactments, will give him apiece of bread and butter, and tay to him, there lie, the road, my good fellow.

To the Editor of the Journal and Regitieri Sia: I perceived in your paper a communication on Ihe subject of Temperance; and I am glad to see uini auiiie one is enoeavonng to mane our citizens reflect upon that important subject. But your correspondent asks several questions, and tha obiaet of this communication is to endeavor to answer one of them. I. V .:n . , ...... . . wnicni win single out namely, " What has become of the young people's Temperance Societyl" Ah! I am too fearful that it is slumbering, while ths enemy is creeping in, and getting the upper hand, sucking the very life-blood from the community. But I fesr its slumber is the sleep or death, for its nsual monthly meetings have ceased to be holden for the past year. But what are the reasons! They are numerous, and I will proceed to give a few of them. First A few meetings previous to the last, the exciting subjoct of "total abstinence" waa introduced into Die Society, which caused much debate for and against; but at last, however, the " total abstinence pledge" waa adopted, and a goneral thinning out, consequently, took place, for there were some who eould " take a glass of wine, once in a while, without hurting tliem." . Second The few meetings held after the pledge had been adopted, where wholly uninteresting, espe- cially to those who attended to learn wholesoms truths, as there were no addresses delivered, but the evenings spent, by a few, in discussing matters of benefit to no one. , With these, and soveral other reasons I eould men-lion, operating against titer good effects which ought to proceed from such a Society, all, with one consent, seemed willing to let it die. But I sincerely hope that before long soms decisiv measures will be taken for forming a general society for the old and young, males and females. Surely there eould not be abetter time, or one which eould need it more; and there could not be a better time than during the session of the General Assembly for raising sn expression of publio opinion on this important subject. And doubtless it would be attended with beneficial results. I hope thnt this subject will not be suffered to rest until some docisive measures are laken in-its behslf. ONE. , . . CoLUMsrs, January 26, 1839. 1 To the Auditor of Clinton County, Dear Sir: I regret extremely, that a mistake occurred in copying my notes of your remarks sppend-ed to the report of common schools. I was compelled to abridge the remarks as much as possible, by making extracts myself, and my notes were handed ovor to ihe clerk in the department to copy; he wrote "negligent" for "vigilant." I had used ihe word vigilant as it waa In your copy. The young man insists that the blame should all attach to him; but probably wa holh should share it; for, though the extraot was made accurately, I should not have suffered myself to be driven through the work with so much haste, as not to allow time for examining ihe work mors closely. The groat amount of business that passed through my hands, within ths four weeks allowed to make the report, is my apology, which I beg you lo present to the township Clerks in yonr county, snd I will eauna sn explanation to be published in the Columbus papers, so that officers who hsve discharged their duties may be disabused and vindicated before the public. ( The words contained in that pan of your notes are ' as follows: "The township clerks of thiseounty have been vigilant, have boslowed much time and pains in endeavoring to collect the most important information as to schools, and the required Information respecting them: they are all friendly to the school Isw, tie." With a sincere desire that your countynay speedily realize (in the approved condition of schools) ths sot-vantages that must result from ths labors of faithful eounty and township superintendents, and with many thanks for the active support yog hsve given to litis department from the time of its organization, I remsin respectfully, yours, SAML.

General Allen is a tried and approved writer Circlcvillt HcraU. Mr. Gallagher has our best wishes in his reliracv.

The Journal has been ably conducted under the ma nagement of Mr. Gallagher, and we are sorry to part with him, Mr. Allen is an able writer and an experienced editor, and the whig cause will be well sustained by him. (Mt'o Srpublican. Mr. Gallagher, an old and valued personal friend of ours, and a very sensitive man, by the way, seems to leave his political charge wilh something of disgust for the editorial vocation. We are sorry to see this; but hope lo find him, before long, at the head of some staunch whig paper, urging onward the great work of rt'turm. General Allen has seen service as an editor: is an able and pleasing writer, as well as an experienced putiiiciiin. uaywn journal. We do not wonder that Mr. Gallagher, an old and tried frit nil of ours, feels no regret in leaving the onerous labors of the political tripod. A sensitive mind finds much, in tho controversies that an independent editor is subject to, to mar and corrode its happiness. It is suhjtct to the slanders of the most vile; the secret thrusts of the most debased and coward-like assassin, and the foul-mouthed vituperation of the degene rate anti recKiess Dully ot a partisan clique. The opinions of an editor are, from week to week, placed before the miblie. and every unstarL conceited nolilii ian conceives himself at perfect liberty to misconstrue and misrepresent them, and commence a personal tirade against the editor for expressing opinions contrary to what is dictated to him as being pure and holy in de mocracy! we hope, however, that our Mend Gallagher will not yet desert the afniy of the whig press; but that he will again hoist the banner of reform, and assist in driving from power the corrupt and profligate partisans that are now revelling in Ilia spoils of office Ihe revenue raised from the yeomanry of ths country.- Hichmond Ind.)

General Allen, in his address to the public, gives a pledge which, we douht not, will be highly satisfactory to the great body nf the whigs throughout the state. Ml, Vernon It atehman. Perhaps so; but Mr. Allen's views, as advanced In the Gazette, have been altogether too exclusively for Harrison to meet much favor with the whigs in this section of the Slate. In assuming the charrre of Ihe Journal and Register, however, Mr. A. pledges himself ' to go for Ihe whig party alone, without reference to men, and uninfluenced by local and private considerations."

We believe he will go for the whig party of this Slate snd the Union," as the only means of rescuing the country from the ruin which misrule has brought upon It. At the same time, his partiality for General Harrison will be none the less sincere; and, while he will endeavor to assert his claims to a preference aa a candidate fur the presidency, he will not meanly and maliciously place either nf his distinguished rivals upon the same platform with Rill Johnson, or any other worthless renegado. This pledge of Mr. Allen implies thai he looks to fie sanction of a Whig National Convention for our candidate fur Ihe presidency; the patriotic letter of General Harrison implies that he, too, looks to the action of the same body for the sanction of his nomina tion, though some ( lav whig editors aflect to deny it. Tho truth is, the star of old Tippecanoe is in the ascendant, and Is rapidly culminating to its meridian splendor. 1 he magnanimous, who have other preferences, will not mourn at this; we are sure that his distinguished rivals will not mourn al it, if so Ihe prosperity or Ihe country ran be best promoted; and it will be lefnly for the narrow-minded partisan to show the iiiipotcjiey of his malice, by vainly attempting to undervalue the services, snd slur the character of the retired soldier and enlightened statesman, who is so eminently worthy of the warmest regard and confidence of us all. 0ii'v Star. Mr. Allen is well known in this region (by the coty- nomcn of "Six f firm") as an experienced editor and excellent wrilor.

Mr. Allen is the gentleman who, in connexion with Mr. Oltnstead, recently issued proposals for publish, ing the 'Ohio Sta:o Courier. In doing so, they avowed their determination to support for the presidency Oltiu's favorite Ihe Hero of Tippecanoe. The Conner is now abandoned, and, in his address to the readers of the Register, Mr. Allen proclaims himself a whig, 'uninfluenced hy local or personal preferences. This it well enough if it mean no more than appears at first view. Hut, taken In connexion wilh the late declaration in favor of General-Harrison, it looks a lit tie suspicious. In Columbus, as in Xenin, there is s kn it of politicians who deem devotion to Mr. Clay Ihe only lest of whigism. It was Ihe mlsfnrtuno of the late editor to pay greater deference to them than his readers were tlisposed to yield. Hence it was that very many whigs, in different parts of tho Stale, experienced a revival of their hopes, and an increased expectation of Ihe success of llio parly when they saw the prospectus of tho Conner.

The question is not an important one, as it is based on improper promises, Mr. Allen and the Register must act independently at present; or it will ba difficult lo please both you and the Transcript. sid! ne- rim Itegiiler. We think so too. Mr. Allen has made himself very favorably known as the editor of a spirited whig paper si .iiasiiuon, unio. w wisn him success In his new station; a position of do little difficulty. And we would like to see him exerting his influence in reforming the tone of the public press. We believe it to be vicious and full of mischief. Questions are no longer discussed upon principle, upon those permanent principles by which time tests all the works of man, whether they be good or whether they be evil Instead of this system, every measure is looked to with reference to Us present popularity. Names have become to stand in the place of things. If a measure can be called by a particular name, and will for Ihe time being gain votes, that is all that is sought for. In this way the public mind is losing all fixedness, all stability. It is veering about like a March wind, having lost all hold upon those great principles which serve as anchors lo the publio mind. Hence it is, that we see men and majorities changing with the annual revolution of the earth; changing too out of mere caprice, and not from any change of principle. This kind of writing may serve a temporary purpose, but must in the end prod uce a harvest of evil. We would, had we lime, like to enlarge upon this topic, on which we have reflected much. We commend these sug-gestions to the serious consideration of all who thus cater for the public. Gallipolie Journal. Well the thing is done. General Allen's labors in the Journal and Register will commence about the first of next month. His qualifications for the editorial chair are of the highest order; and under his management the Journal and Register will doubtless continue to be, what it has heretofore been, the accredited organ and efficient advocate of the whig party in Ohio.

The Commissioners sent from this State to Ohio, wilh a view of procuring the passage of laws calculated to prevent the interference with the slave property of Kentucky by evil disposed persons in Ohio, have been received by the Legislature and Executive of that Stale with distinguished courtesy. The Legislature, on being informed of the arrival of the Commissioners at Columbus, by joint resolutions appointed a committoo of the two Houses, to wait upon them in lite name of the Legislature of Ohio, tender to them all the civilities of the State, and lo advise them that ihe Governor was made the medium of communication between them and the Assembly. The Commissioners have been received and treated with the most marked distinction and courtesy, and from all the indications which have been manifested, a satisfactory termination of the mission may be confidently expected. The Commissioners, in pursuance of the invitation, addressed a communication in writing, to the Legislature on the 2Cth. It is a calm, respectful, and impartial representation of the grievances of which Kentucky complains, recites what other Legislatures have done on similar applications, and concludes with the suggestion of the passage of such laws as will remove all cause of collision between the two States. We learn from private sources, that the best feeling prevails in the Ohio Legislature, and that every disposition is entertained to adopt such legislation as will promote union and harmony. Wo learn also, that written communications, in the first Instance, were deemed (as they most certainly are,) the most respectful, and in strict conformity with diplomatic usage, by which the Legislature of Ohio became officially informed of Ihe presence and desires of the Commissioners from another State. It has been a matlerof surprise lo us to see the Legis lature of Ohio accused of want of courtesy, at the very moment when they were.in the exercice of all the courtesy, attention and consideration, which this State could have desired. 1 he Commissioners themselves, who were in position lo see and know all tho motives which led to the adoption of the resolutions inviting mem to address tne Legislature through the Executive, have met the invitation in a proper spirit, and responded. Whatever may Le Ihoueht of the mode, we are con fident that the intention was to pay the highest mark of respect, and for ourselves, we are fully satisfied that Ohio has adopted, in the first instance, the true diplomatie style of communication. The response of ino vouiinissioners migni icaa to a acsire lor a less restrained intercourse, snd one not restricted by the formalities of written addresses, and the reception of me response, would oe tne time to determine whether such further invitation were desired or necessary. upon tne wnoic, tnose who advocated the commission, have every reason to be perfectly satisfied with its present attitude.

Yes, nineteen out of twenty of our citizens, if they see a slave escaping from Kentucky, or any where else, in spite of all laws and penal enactments, will give him apiece of bread and butter, and tay to him, there lie, the road, my good fellow.

To the Editor of the Journal and Regitieri Sia: I perceived in your paper a communication on Ihe subject of Temperance; and I am glad to see uini auiiie one is enoeavonng to mane our citizens reflect upon that important subject. But your correspondent asks several questions, and tha obiaet of this communication is to endeavor to answer one of them. I. V .:n . , ...... . . wnicni win single out namely, " What has become of the young people's Temperance Societyl" Ah! I am too fearful that it is slumbering, while ths enemy is creeping in, and getting the upper hand, sucking the very life-blood from the community. But I fesr its slumber is the sleep or death, for its nsual monthly meetings have ceased to be holden for the past year. But what are the reasons! They are numerous, and I will proceed to give a few of them. First A few meetings previous to the last, the exciting subjoct of "total abstinence" waa introduced into Die Society, which caused much debate for and against; but at last, however, the " total abstinence pledge" waa adopted, and a goneral thinning out, consequently, took place, for there were some who eould " take a glass of wine, once in a while, without hurting tliem." . Second The few meetings held after the pledge had been adopted, where wholly uninteresting, espe- cially to those who attended to learn wholesoms truths, as there were no addresses delivered, but the evenings spent, by a few, in discussing matters of benefit to no one. , With these, and soveral other reasons I eould men-lion, operating against titer good effects which ought to proceed from such a Society, all, with one consent, seemed willing to let it die. But I sincerely hope that before long soms decisiv measures will be taken for forming a general society for the old and young, males and females. Surely there eould not be abetter time, or one which eould need it more; and there could not be a better time than during the session of the General Assembly for raising sn expression of publio opinion on this important subject. And doubtless it would be attended with beneficial results. I hope thnt this subject will not be suffered to rest until some docisive measures are laken in-its behslf. ONE. , . . CoLUMsrs, January 26, 1839. 1 To the Auditor of Clinton County, Dear Sir: I regret extremely, that a mistake occurred in copying my notes of your remarks sppend-ed to the report of common schools. I was compelled to abridge the remarks as much as possible, by making extracts myself, and my notes were handed ovor to ihe clerk in the department to copy; he wrote "negligent" for "vigilant." I had used ihe word vigilant as it waa In your copy. The young man insists that the blame should all attach to him; but probably wa holh should share it; for, though the extraot was made accurately, I should not have suffered myself to be driven through the work with so much haste, as not to allow time for examining ihe work mors closely. The groat amount of business that passed through my hands, within ths four weeks allowed to make the report, is my apology, which I beg you lo present to the township Clerks in yonr county, snd I will eauna sn explanation to be published in the Columbus papers, so that officers who hsve discharged their duties may be disabused and vindicated before the public. ( The words contained in that pan of your notes are ' as follows: "The township clerks of thiseounty have been vigilant, have boslowed much time and pains in endeavoring to collect the most important information as to schools, and the required Information respecting them: they are all friendly to the school Isw, tie." With a sincere desire that your countynay speedily realize (in the approved condition of schools) ths sot-vantages that must result from ths labors of faithful eounty and township superintendents, and with many thanks for the active support yog hsve given to litis department from the time of its organization, I remsin respectfully, yours, SAML.
